Bella's feeling better

Thursday 9 Feb
10am feed and the kittens are taking between 2 and 3ml happily. We place them back on their hot water bottle after wiping them with their mothers scent. Bella decides she is feeling a little happier with them and takes one to clean, she is obviously enjoying her contact with her new baby and when her kitten starts to suckle she closes her eyes and lays back contented. One down two to go!
12 noon - I spoke too soon. I look in to see if they are with their mother or not. No, they are not, although she has put the little one she was feeding earlier back with her other kittens on their hot water bottle. So we feed them all and then place them back on a warm hot water bottle near their mum. We continue with two hourly feeds until 10pm. After then we go to three hrly feeds for the night, I have to say Tim is doing great, as I am still recovering from the accident.
They are all doing well, we'll keep trying for Bella to take to her kittens. I'm sure she will when she feels better.
